We are proud because for more than 5 years we are the first blog in Google Search for Fake Conferences. Our Blog accepts now more than 2500 visits per day from different IP addresses. We are the first blog. We reveal scandals of fake academic publishers.

I just found out information about conference run by WASETorganization is either fake or illegal. Last time, when I was googlingfor a conference of image processing, I found out six names of ICIP in2015, one is the reputable conducted by IEEE and the rest five areconducted by WASET.

Based on this ambigous, I checked on Google and found out that manypeople have been 'fooled' by this organization. This organization usedillegally the name from such reputable conferences, not only for ICIPbut many reputable conference names on their list.

Here some stories from people who have experiences dealing with thisorganization:http://fakeconferences.blogspot.com/2014/02/waset-word-crime-is-poor-to-describe.html

In 2005, a group of MIT graduate students decided to goof off in a very MIT graduate student way: They created a program called SCIgen that randomly generated fake scientific papers. Thanks to SCIgen, for the last several years, computer-written gobbledygook has been routinely published in scientific journals and conference proceedings.

According to Nature News, Cyril Labbé, a French computer scientist, recently informed Springer and the IEEE, two major scientific publishers, that between them, they had published more than 120 algorithmically-generated articles. In 2012, Labbé had told the IEEE of another batch of 85 fake articles. He's been playing with SCIgen for a few years—in 2010 a fake researcher he created, Ike Antkare, briefly became the 21st most highly cited scientist in Google Scholar's database.

On the one hand, it's impressive that computer programs are now good enough to create passable gibberish. (You can entertain yourself by trying to distinguish real science from nonsense on quiz sites like this one.) But the wide acceptance of these papers by respected journals is symptomatic of a deeper dysfunction in scientific publishing, in which quantitative measures of citation have acquired an importance that is distorting the practice of science.

Bogus IEEE Conferences in 2014. This Conference CSCI 2014 exists in IEEE Data Base and has the official approval and sponsorship of IEEE, but it is quite bogus: No Chairman, No Reviewers, No Committee, No Address of the Organizers, No supporting University. This is the Absolutely Junk IEEE Conference: http://www.americancse.org/events/csci2014/publication
